Hi everybody

I'm a french student and I use Pro Engineer Wildfire 4.0 with a student license for a CAD project.

I would like to save my .prt files in step 3D, but i can't choose this file extension when I save my project ...

Does anyone have a solution ? Is there an extension available to perform that ?

I browsed the internet but found nothing.

Thanks for your help

The Interface for STEP option was missing in some old Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire Student and School Editions.

This option, and corresponding command, should be now available in recent Creo Parametric editions.

Select: File, Save a Copy

Then select which type/format you want to save the file in (STEP, IGES, and much more).

That should do it.

Hello timothy, thanks for your answer

When I click on "save a copy", there are many extensions available but not .stp

I made a screenshot so that you can see what I mean :

The reason might be the student edition ?

Again, thanks for your help

Strange. I have seen in the "Schools Edition" that STEP is available. However, the "Schools Edition" may be different from the "Student Version". I own the comercial version and do not claim to fully understand the difference for the Schools, Student, Student for Personal Use versions.

Hopefully someone can jump in an help. Can you use IGES or one of the other options (parasolids) in the meantime?

Cheers,

Tim
